American Standard M970043-4270A – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the American Standard M970043 spout set screw kit actually used for?
It is the fastener kit that secures a faucet spout in place. American Standard catalogues it as a screw-type fastener for faucet applications, so it is the small hardware you order when the set screw holding a spout is stripped, seized, or missing rather than a whole spout or cartridge.
2) What finish does the American Standard spout set screw kit come in, and what part number do I order?
Satin brass is the finish offered, ordered as American Standard part M970043-4270A. If your spout trim is chrome or another finish, match the set screw to the trim you are working on before you commit, because satin brass is the only finish this kit is built in.
3) Will this replace a set screw on any brand of faucet spout, or only American Standard?
Treat it as an American Standard part. It is sold as the American Standard spout set screw kit under part M970043-4270A, and set screw thread size and length vary between manufacturers, so a set screw pulled from another brand's spout is not something this kit is stated to fit. For a non-American Standard faucet, source the set screw for that brand's spout instead.
4) Does the M970043 kit include the spout or any other faucet trim?
No. It is the set screw hardware only, catalogued as a fastener for faucets. If the spout itself is cracked, pitted, or the finish has failed, you need the spout assembly as a separate item; this kit only gets a sound spout locked back onto the faucet body.
5) I manage apartments and need to keep faucet repair parts on hand. Is a set screw kit worth stocking?
Yes, for American Standard faucets. The set screw is the part that gets chewed up when a spout is pulled or over-tightened during a cartridge swap, and losing it takes a working faucet out of service over a piece of hardware. Stocking the M970043 kit means a spout that spins or lifts off gets fixed on the same visit instead of turning into a full trim replacement.
